“I see that it is by no means useless to travel, if a man wants to see something new” Jules Verne

World Wide Wednesday Presents: Manaus, Rhodes, Cyprus

In the rain forest of Brazil
You can feel the thrill
Sailing down the river Negro
Quite the incognito
A glimpse of the dolphins
Can rise the endorphins

Planning on staying a while
On the beautiful isle
That of Cyprus
Home to many a cypress
The surrounding seas of turquoise
Swimming around like the tortoise

Enjoying the island life
Dancing to a flute or a fife
Whether a history buff
Or a hang loose beach bum
Rhodes is the place enough
To make you wanna hum

Posted in Fav Foto Friday /Fav Foto Friday #20

Share each Friday, on your own blog, one photo…or maybe even a gallery of some of your favorite photos that you have taken during the week, that make you smile or that was a great photo capturing opportunity…anything really! And as photographers are often known to say, “The best camera is, the one that you have with you!”

 

Painter gone for a break?

“A photograph is usually looked at – seldom looked into” Ansel Adams

Favourite Photo Friday , 2015-12-11

For this week’s favourite photograph, I have chosen something from the Rhodes Island collection, posted in the World Wide Wednesday series on, you guessed it, Wednesday!

I have titled this photo as “Painter gone for a break?”

There is just something to be said about a black and white photograph, a colour one can never capture the finer nuances like a B/W can.

Enjoy!

“Wherever you go, go with all your heart” Confucius  

World Wide Wednesday Presents: Rhodes Island, Part Four

Rhodes Island, Greece
A small piece
Of our history
Beyond the centuries
The old town
Considered the crown
The beach
At your reach
Ixia, Kamiros or Lindos
A small drive with the bus
Everything you need
On the small island of Greece

Photo Rehab The Clinic: Week 34: Wrap up

The Photo Rehab is a great community to share photos, learn new techniques, discover new talents, and connect.

In December 2014, after completing the Photo101 course, I opened the Photo Rehab Event in this blog, a ‘healing clinic’, for all of us who love photography (hobbyists, amateurs, pro-shooters and enthusiasts) who missed the course and daily interaction with other photobloggers.

 

Check out all the magnificent photographs for this week:

Week 34: Wrap up
